Uttarakhand government has strengthened Operation Kalnemi to act against fake sadhus deceiving people. Now imposters will face criminal charges and arrests, not just detention. Police will act under Drugs and Magic Remedies (Objectionable Advertisements) Act, 1954, Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) Act, 2023, Information Technology Act, 2000, and Foreigners Act, 1946. Cases include fake identity cards, cyber fraud, and foreigners using fake documents. Operation Kalnemi, named after a demon in Hindu mythology, was launched before the Kanwar Yatra by the Chief Minister of Uttarakhand to protect Sanatan Dharma and social harmony.
